More details to this question:
Can public safety on a college campus take personal items from your room? I have looked at the student handbook, and it says they are allowed to confiscate illicit items. I have a safe that I did not have the key for so they took it until i get them the key. No where does it say they can take non-illicit items. I believe they illegally took my safe as I did not give them permission to take it. As well in our student handbook it states: Legal rights of students to privacy in their persons, campus living quarters, papers and effects shall be respected.
